ultimately my question is "which cassette, 11-25 or 12-27?"

According to the above link, for TTs and Ironman you want to be coasting and tucked at >50kph
According to the below link on a 50/34 crankset, 100rpm on 12 is just over 50kph, vs 90rpm on 11.

So I'm in mind to get the 11-25 so that top speed feels easier, but the trade off is losing the spinning 34*27 that I may be desperate for after six or seven hours around Bolton.
